Reviews:

Pathos & Ethos. Heart wrenching and immersive. Some of the Character Design & Setting initially put me off months ago. Now after download its all endearing. Its Basically an away at Camp Story that touches Harem Comedy. The writing is slow paced but you can scan read. The GUI aint perfect. Bough soundtrack after, may pick up Guitar after this... This stays with you, repeat to get good ending(s). U can tell the artists had complete creative license. These characters will stick w/ you, strongly for a long time after. You ought to be able to donate...

Like all the reviews say, the story is really good and it’s free too which is nice. However the main character is horrible. All he wants to do is sleep and eat so it’s frustrating when you want to go socialize with all the amazing characters but you can’t. He’s also just very mean. The main character also makes a lot of stupid annoying choices that I can’t control that negatively effects the way some of the characters see me. Having the main character so unrelatable kinda takes away from the immersion but otherwise it’s a great game!

This is honestly one of the best games I have ever played. It has a great story with 13 different endings, has a great amount of choices, and is one of the only visual novels that I have seen that is 100% free. The localization is iffy at times but its nothing major and doesn't impact the story at all. If you want an amazing visual novel, this is your game!

I love this game. The music is so lovely and the backgrounds are so pleasant to look at. I like the story a lot too and I like it's length. Some things I'm not really a fan of are some of the suggestive themes, but overall, I enjoy this game very much. I'm very surprised it's free.
